Case Logic 17" Laptop and Projector Roller

Case Logic ZLRP-117 Rolling Projector Case with 17-Inch Laptop StorageMy projector would not fit!!!

From the Case Logic Site "holds portable projectors up to 11.5 x 10 x 4.5 inches".

My projector is a bit under 4.5 inches high and it was impossible to zip the case.

Fits everything, but more importantly fits a 17" laptop with no problem. Also allows me to carry a second laptop and my iPad. Or enough clothing for a night or two.

Had a damaged zipper when I received the case. I contacted Amazon, They told me to contact the manufacturer. I was very surprised when they contacted the manufacturer for me. I received all the instructions and forms, took some pictures, emailed them in with my form, and within week I had a replacement case.

This speaks highly of Amazon and Case Logic.

If you are wanting a large, heavy monster to take with you... by all means get this. But seriously, there is absolutely NO extra room for anything. I searched everywhere looking for something that I can pack my 17" laptop and cords in and still have a little room for a few small toys for my toddler to take with me on my flight. I was excited to see the fedex truck pull up and give me my package. As soon as I opened it, I realized that this is NOT what I was expecting. I even watched the video again just too see if maybe I was mistaking. But sadly, no. The video is misleading. You do not have the removable case and there is hardly any room for the extras. I can guarantee that after you get your laptop, cords, and what little bit you can fit in, the weight of this thing will be too much of a hassle to deal with for a simple carry on. There is not a whole lot of padding. So don't waste your money. This is going to be returned asap.

This is a great product but not the one in the video and pics. I am enjoying it but do wish it had the pullout inserts.

I bought this case for my new business. I will be traveling around to different locations using this case a mobile office. I wanted something to be able to put my larger laptop, files , projector when needed, and my mobile HP printer. You would need the smallest projector in the world(maybe the one you hook onto an iphone) to fit in this bag. You need something less than 3.5 inches in height. I have my laptop and files in bag and barely have room for my mobile printer. The pull handle is basically in the projector compartment with thin fabric cover over the handle taking up a lot of space where your projector should go. Once everything is loaded, it really stretches our the zippers. I am afraid that after a few months the zippers will fail.

I would also not look at this bag for a overnight trip. There is just not enough room unless you are only packing small grooming bag and some flip flops, but they would only fit if you were not taking a projector or printer. There is just not enough room for everything I need in mobile office.

I wish I had purchased on Amazon....... but I did not..... when will I learn.

Stephen Joseph Girls 2-6X Rolling Luggage

Stephen Joseph Girls 2-6x Girl's Rolling Luggage, Owl, One SizeThis luggage is very cute and a good size for packing a little girls stuff. The only thing I didn't like about it was that it has only two hard walls. One on top and and one on the bottom. The two sides of the bag has only plastic walls. It is probably because the side walls are a little curved-in to copy the butterfly shape. This bag does not look as much attractive when it is not full. I wanted to give it as a gift and I had to fill it up with shipping plastic wraps so that it does not look collapsed and wrinkly.

This item is totally adorable!!! But the only way it will look like the picture is if it is stuffed completely full! It has plastic reiforcement on the bottom but the top is just partial, not going across the total width of the bag, so there is no structure to keep it square. The sides just collapse in. This would make it dificult fo a toddler to zip it up. The handle will stay in the up position if you let go of it, put it does moves freely up and down so as a child is pulling the luggage, the handle moves up and down. It didn't help that it was shipped in a plastic bag and came completely flat. Very dissapointed for the price!

Buy Stephen Joseph Girls 2-6X Rolling Luggage Now

This was purchased as a gift for my daughter because she was taking a week long trip to grandma and grandpas house. Pulling it out of the box revealed a very cutely colored rolling luggage. It has some pockets for smaller items and plenty of internal space for clothes and other necessities for a child. Unfortunately, it feels cheap. The extendable handle does not lock in place, which has annoyed my daughter as she tries to pull it along. The handle will just collapse at the smallest amount of force. After just one week of use the colors don't seem as vibrant. I am sure it will last plenty of time and my daughter loves the wheels which allow her to pull it along like mommy and daddy. However, I would not purchase this item in the future as I am confident I could find a better quality item for a similar price (the price was great, especially since it was a gift).

I got this suitcase for my little girl (5) before our Christmas trip. She had fun naming her owl and packing her "accessories" in the outside pockets. It is quite roomy--all of her belongings for a 7 day trip were able to fit in it. This luggage helped her to be much more independent during our travels--including a 6-hour layover in the airport. My only complaint is that it fell on the front a couple times and my daughter started pulling it that way for a minute or two and the mesh on the front pocket wore away in a couple spots. Other than that I haven't had any issues with durability.

Meaning.... we took this on a month long trip and it got manhandled from vehicle to vehicle, toddler playing with it prior to trip and packing/unpacking stuff from it all month. It held up well to constant use. My 3.5 yr old loves HER suitcaseI have to keep it in the closet when not in use, as she wants to roll it around and put all her toys in it otherwise. It holds quite a bit of clothes, I packed it 2 weeks full of baby clothes (as we took our 4 month old with us). On the return trip we packing it with the toddler stuff and it held easily a week's worth, plus some toiletries. I'm sure airlines are harder on bags then I am, so based on what I can see in the manufacturing of the bag, it could hold up to being thrown around a few times, but it IS a child's bag and it IS made from softer materials then a "grown up" bag. I would buy again, and would recommmend.

Barbie Girls Backpack and Wallet

Barbie Girls Backpack and WalletI purchased two of these backpacks for my 7 year old twin granddaughter's. They loved them and the accompanying wallet. I was very pleased with not only the appearance but also the durability. I am sure these bags will function well for the girls' during the upcoming school year. Very Happy with this dual purchase and would highly recommend them!

Brenthaven 2133 ProStyle Lite Backpack for 15-Inch MacBooks /Laptop / Ultrabook - Black

Brenthaven 2133 ProStyle Lite Backpack for 15-Inch MacBooks  /Laptop / Ultrabook - BlackI love a lot about this bag. The layout is great. The quality of construction is top-notch. The weight, style, and format were perfect for me. But, unfortunately, this is one terrible backpack. The key flaw is that the shoulder straps are sewn on several inches below the top of the bag along a *horizontal* seam. Picture a person's shoulders and you'll realize, shoulders are not horizontal.

The end result is that the straps have to twist to accommodate the anatomical shape of the wearer's shoulders, and as a result, they displace nearly all the weight of the pack along just the inside edges of the straps. This intense stress concentration on one's shoulders and neck muscles is quite painful, especially if you have 10 lbs (5 kg) of laptop, iPad, chargers, and books in the bag. I wore the bag around for a week while on a trip and it was so painful that I nearly exchanged it for another bag while still on my trip. If you never walk more than 100 paces before you set the bag down, you'll love it. But if you have to walk more than a minute or two with this bag on, it's going to become a torture device, and some massage therapist is going to love you.

To my friends a Brenthaven (a company I truly like): Please seek out outdoor equipment designers in Seattle who really know backpacks (I'm thinking REI, MSR, OR, etc..) to help your luggage designers learn to make proper backpacks. There's lots of knowledge in the industry about how to design packs that displace load well. You'll have to put as much focus on weight displacement as you do on those wonderful fuzzy pockets that protect our iThings if you want to make truly great backpacks.

I travel a great deal and need to carry a bit more than the minimum. My standard setup is a carry-on roller bag with a backpack hung onto it, piggy-back style. On the plane, the backpack lives under the seat in front of me, and serves as an excursion bag once I am on site. The Brenthaven 2133 ProStyle Lite is just right for me. It balances nicely on the roller bag and holds my Dell Latitude E6400 easily in a separate compartment. There's an ample center space for files and reading material, and a front section that I use for my Cocoon CPG10BK GRID-IT Organizer, 12 x 8 Inch, Black and all miscellaneous cables, adapters, headphones, etc. The little zip pocket in front is fine for a small amount of quickly stashed flat stuff, like tickets and magazines, so long as they are not quite full-size.

This backpack is slim and does not feel bulky on the back. It fits my mba or 15 mbp just fine. There is a special compartment for a tablet which I use for my ipad. It also fits all the other odds and ends I tend to travel with just fine (mag safe charger, ipad charger, pens, business cards, 3 port power adapter, universal power adapter, mifi) and there is still a lot of room to spare. Everything is organized nicely and items are very easy to get to. I was using a messenger bag for a long time, but switched back to a backpack and am glad I did. This backpack is extremely comfortable and feels sturdy on the back. I could even fit an some spare clothing or a sweatshirt in this no problem. The foldaway water bottle holder is nice touch as well.

If you travel for extended times and you need to carry a lot of gadgets, folders, and so forth, this is a great backpack to do this. I have used it in several trips and I can store in the over head compartments of the smaller airplanes with no issues. It is very well built and the straps are very comfortable to wear.

Coyote Tan Military MOLLE Medium Transport Backpack

Coyote Tan Military MOLLE Medium Transport BackpackI got 2 of these it's small but you can put a lot of stuff in it. It's a minutare bug out bag very sturdy,great for carrying your electronics or anything else.

I got this bag as a gift, and let me tell you, I could not be happier, It's rugged, comfortable, and has a waist belt that is also comfortable. The loops and d-rings on the outside are very handy, and I haven't tested out the water resistant inside. It is a little small for being advertised as a medium bag, but definitely worth the money.

Osprey Packs Flare Daypack

Osprey Packs Flare DaypackI have been buying Osprey packs for over 15 years. Currently, I have about 6. I have never had an issue, EVER. They go into the washing machine and come out like new. From a hydration pack to a 65 liter Atmos, and the Halo, Flare, Focus, and Quantum in between. I love them all.

The Flare is perfect as a day bag. Recently, I packed it with a pair of sneakers an extra coat and my iPad w/chargers and headphones, and had room for snacks, papers, gloves and a knit hat, with room to spare.

My only complaint is that they don't wear out, so I can't justify buying more!

I have tried North Face and the external mesh pocket ripped, as well as cheaper bags that don't hold up.

I cannot say more about the quality of Osprey bags. They are very comfortable with many ways to adjust the fit. Check Osprey's website for sizing. If you don't like your purchase, I'll take it!

This backpack has taken a lot of abuse over the past couple of months. I load my backpack far beyond normal and is never mollycoddled. It has held up admirably. The backpack itself is pretty light, but the construction is top notch. No complaints at all.

Absolutely fantastic backpack. Amazing quality. The additional internal pockets are great for keeping your papers and books organized while on the move. Exterior pouches are perfect for the items you want to carry there: cell phone, bottle of water, etc. Zipper pull stirngs make for easy opening and closing. Multiple carrying handles allow you to get a firm grip no matter what angle you grab it from. The color is great and thankfully not as bright as it looks in the pictures. Highly recommended!!

Sumdex Computer Backpack - 15.6"

Sumdex PON-416BK Zephyr Backpack for up to 15.6 Inch NotebookI purchased this as a replacement for a 2-year-old model of Embark brand laptop backpack that is no longer made. The first thing I noticed was that this backpack is significantly heavier than the other maybe about 50% heavier so much so that I expect it will be more fatiguing to wear for someone light in weight or small in size. The weight seems to be in the padding material. The padding is thick, which is a good thing for a laptop backpack, but it's also much stiffer than I was expecting. The stiffness is surely a good thing for the laptop, but it makes the backpack less comfortable than I wanted it to be. I have only just received this backpack, so I can't comment on its durability. However, the finish is nice the zippers seem to be of solid material, there are no loose threads or seams. There are 4 zippered compartments. The 1 deep one at the back has an iPod/phone pocket as well as a stiff divider inside with a Velcro strap (to keep the laptop in as opposed to my previous backpack, which kept the laptop in a slim, padded, separately-zippered compartment behind the deep compartment). The 2nd compartment from the front has nice pockets for ID, pens, calculators, etc. The handle at the top is well padded and comfortable. The mesh pockets on the sides are large enough to hold water bottles.

I am taking flight lessons and needed a bag that could hold all of my gear. Found this bag on a shelf at Fry's and could see right away that it was exactly what I wanted. It has an ideal pocket arrangement for general aviation, with four entirely separate zippered pockets. The smallest pocket just barely fits a Jeppesen fuel tester / screwdriver and keeps it separate from other, cleaner items, and the second-largest pocket fits a pair of aviation headphones. The quality seems fine, the zippers feel study, and it is comfortable enough for the walk across the ramp to my plane and back.

This backpack is small but spacious, compact for those who want to care their notebooks, I use to walk and cycling with my Lenovo in my back and sometimes I forgot is even there.

Angry Birds Large Backpack 16"

Angry Birds Large Backpack 16'I bought this for one of my nieces who is a big fan of the games. She takes it everywhere she goes now. She's pretty rough with it and it holds up pretty very well.

I rated it a five because I can see no way it could be better. I am happy with the lettering, colors, size, birds, zippers, compartments, delivery speed and cost! I would recommend this product to anyone who wants a backpack with these characters. It is well made, colorful and the right size. It has small openings at the side for small or last minute items. My grandson is very happy with it and that is the most important thing.

TrendyDigital Reversible Sleeve, Cover, Case for Laptops, Netbook up to 10 Inches (Black/Red)

TrendyDigital Reversible Sleeve, Cover, Case for Laptops, Netbook up to 10 InchesPros: prevents scratches and damage within reason (it won't save your netbook from a significant fall or being run over by your car, but if you need that kind of impregnability, you'll want something like a billet steel box), easy to get on and off my 10.1" Acer Aspire One AO532h (although you need to stretch it a bit but that's ok because neoprene can stretch a lot), good looking (the black side of it looks good, but plain which is nice because I don't like fancy designs on my things), and cheap... I got it for a few dollars (admittedly expecting a piece of junk, using the you will get what you pay for mentality) but I was amazed at the quality that I received.

Cons: none worth serious consideration, but it felt a bit small for my netbook at first, but it doesn't anymore... the red side of it might be a little overbearing because it's s bright red, but there are people (like my mom) who like overbearingly bright colors.

Other Thoughts: It's neoprene, so when you put excessive amounts of force in a small area for a significant amount of time, it will show up as a dent in the material. That means it's doing it's job. the dent might go away, it might not, but you know that there is something applying that force to your netbook, that you may not want pushing on your netbook. If I were to buy another netbook I would buy this sleeve again without a second thought. Trendy Digital has a good product here.

Tumi Alpha Bravo Kingsville Deluxe Brief Pack

Tumi Luggage Alpha Bravo Kingsville Deluxe Brief Pack, Black, One SizeFirst off, yes, it's an expensive backpack, but it's a Tumi. Since it's a Tumi, I expect years and years of service from it. The bag is made from their signature ballistic nylon so it should last decades like my luggage. The fit and finish are superb on this bag. All the zippers were protected for shipping so the bag was flawless on arrival. It is a very nice looking bag, the photos don't do it justice. There is a protected slot for a laptop, one for an iPad, one for what could be a netbook or file folders, a generous main cargo area and numerous side and front pockets, one of which includes a key hanger. I found the iPad slot didn't work for my iPad with its Jobi Ori cover, but the netbook sized slot worked fine. 15" laptop also fit fine. This bag will carry clothes for an overnighter in the main cargo area. There is a water bottle holder. The bag fit great in an airplane's overhead bin and under the seat.

All in all, it's a Tumi so it is functional, good looking, and will last nearly forever under hard use.

Update 3/16/2013:

Still looks great, and I am still glad I purchased it. In fact I just bought another as a gift.

I use this bag to carry my important stuff when I travel, and it is close to perfect.

The laptop sleeve inside is sized to best fit a laptop the size of a MacBook Pro or similar laptop. These days when I travel I carry an UltraBook sized laptop (a Lenovo Yoga 13), and there's plenty of room for that. You could probably squeeze in a thick laptop, but I think it may stress the lining a bit. There is another pouch opposite the laptop sleeve for carrying a tablet or second laptop. I stick my iPad in there.

One surprise I had is that there is no extra padding in the bottom of the laptop sleeve, so you can't slam the bag down hard on ground. It's less of a problem if you laptop uses a SSD hard drive, but for regular "spinning" hard drives, you need to be careful. Tumi should add some gel padding in the bottom of the laptop sleeve in future generations of this bag.

The materials are excellent (as I would expect) and it has survived many trips so far without a hitch. One of my favorite aspects of this bag is that it doesn't balloon outward as you pile in a lot of stuff. Other packs I've owned grow horizontally, sticking out further and further from your back, which is a problem when traveling. This one keeps its shape well. The two wide vertical stripes you see on the front of the bag are made from the same material as a seat belt (it seems to me), so maybe they help to keep the bag from getting misshapen when full. It all looks and works great.

The drink holder pocket (on the right side of the photo) is deep enough to hold a 1 liter SmartWater bottle. If you put a small water bottle in there, it sinks down so low you might forget it's in there.

I recommend this Tumi pack to anyone looking for a great-looking bag that can handle a lot of daily use, while keeping its shape nicely. Well worth the extra money you pay for a Tumi.

Want Tumi Alpha Bravo Kingsville Deluxe Brief Pack Discount?

to be fair the review is about the brand and not on this specific backpack.

I bought a TUMI backpack after a recommendation from a friend that mentioned there is life time warranty on it (to justify the 200$ price tag).

I decided its a good deal since I was confident I will be able to keep this bag our of harms way as far as external damages.

4+ years gone by the bag started to show some chewing done by the teeth of time from normal use and I decided to go to your friendly neighborhood TUMI store, pay a fee of 15$ for the shipping to TUMI "labs" in order to get the bag fixed or replaced. got a letter a week later asking me to contact them in 30 days or they ship the bag back "as is". (no phone call follow up god forbid in spite of the fact they get all your details when you ship it back).

the lady informed me the model I had only covered by warranty for 3 years... and other than that they cant repair the bag damage.

the only option the way they see it is for me to purchase another back at a discount.

now all that was good and nice if it was the redbull bag I bought in Thailand at 2001 for 10$ (that didn't have any damage since then by the way) but its a 200$ investment we talking about here.

the lady kindly corrected me it was 189$..

of course the fact I bought the bag in Manhattan in which you pay sale tax is not something TUMI cares to much about.

I let her know they can throw the bag and that I will make sure not me or anyone else I know will purchase their overpriced bags again, and its not because the product is not good I honestly liked it while I used it but because a company that charge so much premium for a mass manufactured product has no right to exist with this type of service.

so if you are about to buy a TUMI product I implore you to factor this incident in your decision and learn from my experience.

All the Best

p.s.

Nanuk 925 Case with Padded Divider (Black)

Nanuk 925 Case with Padded DividerI recently purchased a Nanuk 925 case with foam and I could not be more pleased. Being that I have been a die hard customer of Pelican for many many years I was very skeptical of what I might be getting myself into. However, after looking at the specs of these cases and style I thought I would give it a try. Well, let me say these cases blow away Pelican. First off the latches are incredibly easy to use and I can open them with one hand. The handle also folds down which I never really thought about until I did it and I was able to fit the case in a storage compartment in my closet. Also the case is simply much better looking. I have invested a lot of energy into making a decent presentation when I show up for a job and these cases just look better and I can stack them! I opted for the case with foam that is basically the same as all the other cases I have ever gotten with foam inserts.

Consider me converted.

I often take my camera out on my boat during the summer months and needed a case that could withstand the water and moisture on a daily bases. While at my local Camera store I ran across the Nanuk cases. You might wonder why I did not go with Pelican, the answer was simple, I broke my nail trying to latch the case. Really! The case has worked out perfect and the latches are a dream.

Buy Nanuk 925 Case with Padded Divider (Black) Now

I believe this case exceeds its rival Pelican! GREAT price! The whole case is very sturdy and the latches are great! I am using this for camera equipment--a camera body, grip, 3 lenses (including a 70-200mm), and Speedlight. In the 925, if laid out right, you can fit those with plenty of padding. I was lucky to get this on the Black Friday event and paid even less! (LUCKY ME!) I would purchase again though at full price. High recommended!

Read Best Reviews of Nanuk 925 Case with Padded Divider (Black) Here

I ran out of room in my Pelican 1510 and I was looking for something to hold my manual focus lenses and other pieces of gear. Pelican cases are expensive and I was looking to do a little better cost wise. I found Nanuk, which I had never heard of before, via the internets.

The Nanuk 925 case is similar to Pelican in features, with a few differences: The latches are of a better design, they will probably save your gear if they open somehow during a fall since they have an extra "safety" on them--even if latch pops, the case won't fall open. The handle folds into a locked position which is nice. Plastic seems softer but not sure if it is weaker. This case does NOT have the metal lock reinforcements like my Pelican. The padded dividers have less padding. The overall "outline" of the dividers is just as thick--sides and bottom--but the individual dividers are thinner. The divider system is much more customizable than the Pelican's due to the fact that the entire bottom has velcro and there are more/different sizes of dividers. However, the dividers, while better, are still not perfect. Two of the long ones only have velcro on one side and thus the case is not as customizable as it could be...

I shoot Pentax and I was able to fit the following gear in the Nanuk 925: Pentax DA 14mm f 2.8 w/hood, Sigma 28mm f1.8 w/hood, Pentax A 28mm f2.8, Pentax FA 35mm f2 w/hood, Pentax FA 50 f1.4, Pentax F 35-70 f3.5-4.5, Pentax DA 18-55 f4-5.6 AL II w/hood, Tamron 28-105 f4-5.6 w/hood, Pentax A 70-210 f4, Metz AF-58 Flash w/case, Pentax 28mm lens hood w/case, Hoya 49mm ND8 filter w/case.

That amount of gear filled the thing and I had two of the small dividers left over. I set it up as seen in the photos except I used the small dividers to sub divide the top right compartment into 3 sections for the 18-55 and 28-105 zooms and the 28mm lens hood and the bottom right section into one long portion for the 70-210 zoom and the hoya filter.

The 925 is about the size of a regular, full-size briefcase in all dimensions. This means you have little depth for larger lenses. In other words, you will have to lay the longer glass on its side. In my configuration all of the short glass was stuck in vertically with the exception of the 70-210 zoom. The flash also was placed on its side. I do not believe you could put a DSLR with grip in this standing up, it would have to lay on its back and thus take up more room. A DSLR without a grip/battery pack (Pentax k100d, k20d) would fit standing up. To compare, the Pelican 1510 is much deeper and you can put some telephotos in it straight up--I have a Takumar 200mm f4 and a Pentax FA 100-300 f4.7 in that case and they fit straight up and down, my k20d DSLR also fits in there with grip straight up as well.

Clearly, Nanuk is just as high quality as the Pelican, with some additional improvements. Their prices seem a bit more reasonable and they have sales--which I never find with Pelican. I like this case, but as always I wish I would have got a bigger one!

Turtle Shell Back Pack

Turtle Shell Back PackI originally purchased this bag while at Sea World, I love sea turtles so I thought it would make a great purse. I have used it for several months and noticed it was starting to wear out. So, I found this one and decided to buy it as a back up. I use this bag daily and it gets pretty banged up but seems to handle it well.

The bag is awesome, very strong and the packaging is clean. I just did not realized how small it was.

Ogio Operative Laptop/Tablet Backpack

Ogio Operative Laptop/Tablet BackpackReplaced the backpack my office provided me for my laptop. I can carry (if needed) two laptops in here without much problem. I have had no issues with the quality of this pack, it has stood up to my abuse pretty well. Lots of storage, not bulky, perfect for me!

I have fit inside the pack at one time :

Dell Latitude E5430

Dell Inspiron 13z

iPad mini

random chargers and some other stuff

The areas for the ipad and notebook are well protected. I bought this to replace my Tumi hand carry laptop bag it is very nice for the plane. The sunglasses pocket could be bigger and is hard to get them in and out of.

I haven't used my backpack yet but I did make sure, upon receiving it, that it will accommodate my HP Pavilion G7. It seems like a well-made pack with several cushioned pockets for phones, tablets, mp3s, etc. I look forward to using it this fall!

Very happy with it. The only detraction is the lack of internal pickets for easy access to cables, power supplies, etc. I needed to use a separate soft caddy for those items, but the pack was more than roomy enough to accommodate it.

I have come to love Ogio bags after getting one on sale and one for my wife. I have the Flux bag and just wanted more padding in the main compartment and space to put my computer stuff and books. The flux has great shoulder straps with that strap across your neck so you carry it and don't really notice it there unlike most bags with two plain straps you can feel the bag hanging and tugging on your back...

Pros:

Bag has firm back padding and nice neck and shoulder straps. It feels like the Flux improved. When you fill it up and tighten the straps you don't feel this bag on your bag, great for traveling or students.

I love the quality and color of the bag, nice pockets for your stuff and nice padding materials in all areas of the bag.

Fits my 15.4 inch Dell Laptop with the num pad on the keyboard, says fits a 17 inch haven't tried but this is a longer 15 inch laptop so it might...

Cons:

If I have to give one, compared to the Flux the more compartments take a little space away from the pocket for your cables and the main compartment but you get much better protection and padding for what the bag is carrying so it's a win loose not a complaint...

Cuscus Single Strap Sling Backpack 20 Inch for School

20'Adventurer Sling Messenger Shoulder Daypack Single Strap Daypack Backpack Bag NavyI wanted to get the perfect bag for my boyfriend who's a guy on the go. He has so much stuff that he's always carrying around and half the time forgetting stuff at work and at home. Well I didn't know which one to get so I ordered two which was this bag and Jansport Air Cisco Metro Daypack. Not only was the Jansport huge but it was really expensive and I'll tell you he has not used it once(hopefully it'll come in handy when travleing), but the 20' cuscus single strap sling (this bag) goes EVERYWHERE with him. It's convient, comfortable and best of all he loves it. Since he's a police officer he's always taking his gun home with him it's nice that he can keep those personal items out of site.

It's got a place for everything...even your ipod which is conviently located on the strap that goes over your chest. Absolutly great for hiking and if he jogs to work(he lives really close to work). I ordered him the gray one and now I'm going to order a red one for myself...

I'm a very picky shopper. I spent quite some time looking at various sling packs before deciding on this one. I used it for a week of hiking in Colorado but wanted something that could be used while traveling in the city also. The only complaint I have is that the water bottle holder is quite difficult to use while wearing the pack. If you are able to get your drink out, good luck getting it back in with the pack on. The water bottle holder is very secure however. The pack has little small features that increase security for traveling like the covered front pocket zipper and the fact that the clipped cinch on the side covers the small side pocket. It would be very difficult if not impossible for someone to get into you pack without you noticing long before they succeed. The pack was very comfortable for all day hikes. I'm totally satisfied. The pocket on the strap was just large enough to hold my Blackberry Storm once I took the case off. Any larger phone (in any dimension) would not have fit. I wouldn't recommend this for a larger laptop, but for stowing away hiking gear or trips to the gym, this pack can't be beat. The stretchable strap laced across the pack was invaluable on my trip for holding layers of clothing from a large coat to a couple of t-shirts. Again, I am totally satisfied.

This bag is compact and not made to replace a "book bag". The large pockets are triangular shaped so it will be obvious right away if something doesn't fit. A netbook or iPad, no problem. A large laptop, good luck.

I used this for a 3 week trip where I was hiking quite a bit and wanted to carry water, a jacket, my iPod, sunscreen, wallet, sunglasses, two pocket cameras, and some other odds and ends. I used up maybe half of the space available. This bag worked perfectly, not too big, not too small.

The zip up pocket that has the headphones hole, is almost impossible to be opened once the extra "cargo" strap is fastened over it a good feature if you're worried about pick pockets. I used it to store my cash, wallet and passport while I was overseas in a "questionable" city.

I would recommend this bag if you want something that isn't too bulky. The extra straps on the outside are a good idea if you have something that doesn't quite fit.

I got this bag because I needed something to hold all of my gear. Ipod, kindle, 13 inch laptop. This backpack, small as it looks, holds all of those no problem. It really is the perfect size to slide in a 13 inch laptop. Has one big pocket, one medium size pocket, an ipod/mp3 pocket with an earbuds hole. To get stuff out of it, it's easy to slide under your left arm and unzip the bag. I love it and use it all the time.

13 inch Café in Paris Silver Gray Notebook Laptop Sleeve Bag Carrying Case for Apple MacBook 13" a

13 inch Café in Paris Silver Gray Notebook Laptop Sleeve Bag Carrying Case for Apple MacBook 13' and 13 inch ComputerI ordered this product based on the reviews.... and I'm overall pretty glad I ended up buying this. First off, the sleeve case that I received did NOT have any problems with the smell... in fact it had no smell at all. Second, I don't know if i received a different version of this case, but for my laptop (MacBook 13.3 inch, aluminum model?) the case is a BIT big, and my zipper goes across the LONG side across the entire case.. also there are spandex straps inside so I can attach the screen and keyboard portion and use it as a cover/case for my laptop while its on. Also, I might add that this is NOT the MOST cushion-y case out there. It's a little on the thin side... And lastly, the "cafe" design is only on one side of the productthe other side is just black. But overall, I am pretty happy about what I received. It is very prettyand I have gotten many compliments on it so far :)

I've gotten so many compliments on it. My only issue is that there are two little white 'x' in the middle of the word 'cafe' on either side of the case. Not quite sure what that is but it takes away from the beauty of the overall case. But otherwise, it's a great case that fits my 13" macbook perfectly.

I got this for my 13" mac book pro. fits perfect. some people complain about an "X" on the "e". its just a tinkling star, its supposed to be there. I get a lot of compliments on it. I really like this sleeve. also i like how the zipper zips on three sides, its useful because you can leave your computer in the sleeve when you want to use it and a huge plus to this is that it has four stretchy little straps on the inside so you can tuck the corners of your comp under them to keep the sleeve up when its open. i bought for for $6 and this was exactly what i was looking for.

Want 13 inch Café in Paris Silver Gray Notebook Laptop Sleeve Bag Carrying Case for Apple MacBook 13" a Discount?

I was very happy when I received my Paris case! It's designed well and definitely fits the price, whereas other cases tend to be around $30. My Macbook Pro 13-inch fits perfectly, even with a snap-on plastic case around it. One thing the case does smell a little strange when it first arrives, so I plan on airing it out for a few days before using it. It's also a darker shade of gray (just a bit) than it shows in the picture, but it's still beautiful. Overall, VERY happy with the design, style, and functionality of this product.
